One man’s raspy, is another man’s raunchy @ped are we getting into sticky territory with what’s allowed to be said in forum - it’s getting me all hot….

Oh how times have changed, the bragging of “mine is smaller than yours…….” Is this what we blokes have become?!

They the best

Two Notes LeBass Hartke VXL version 1 Demon Pedals - The Pavarti Barefaced Lehle - Sonic Spark Gamechanger Audio - Plasma Verellen Meatsmoke

I get what peeps mean about sig basses, and the comment about actually their original recording Bass would be the one to find for emulation, but it can be done well - maybe the sig bass has a specific pick up - you could get a standard P and drop in the pick up they like, some people don’t feel comfortable doing that. I have a MarloweDK from Sandberg which is a sig Jazz - neck profile is different from the standard and suits me, similarly the pick ups are in the 70s position, which is not common now - so I could spend large amounts getting a 70s bass etc. and there were some dog years there ( a few boat anchors) and also have the problems of an older bass, or get the modern (but old) sig model - there will be other examples as such

Another nod to the cloth Supertwin clean eloquent sounding cab that be as loud or subtle as you want

As said earlier about the DK - it’s the body shape. Visually I still just about prefer a traditional Jazz shape, however to play - the new shape wins hands down and I am getting used to the new shape more and more

Pretty sure vibrations was pre 2015 as well MarloweDK has it as standard in its set up and I gots me an old shape one

Vibration or heat treatment to the bass. Pick ups - there is not Delano on them (unless it rubbed off and I can’t see) so they could be Sandberg own, or even Haüssel’s, is it the standard pre amp, or a different one A few things…..

Old shape stopped in 2015 so it will be before then. get the serial number, email Sandberg - then you will have full specs, then you can make a decision on worth

I think it’s anything your phone plays - like a speaker - you can also change settings on saved presets and change IR’s from the app wired headphones into the unit

Yep doesn’t work for some people, but…..my DP3X, PSA 2.0 and dUg Ultrabass 1000 amp covers a lot of ground and pleasing sounds

Great track

I’m relation you the cost comment - it’s not wrong, but with a decent shop around and some luck - you can do it very reasonably, even when I went higher end it was still less than a new mex fender - and at least as good if not better

if you think logically, pretty much all Fenders are bitsa’s! That was their MO how you could pull respective bits out a bucket, bolt them together and away you go! I would happily put my bitsa’s up against mostly any bass and it would not disappoint

Have you considered a bitsa? you have the pick ups already

A very good friend yes and not being present. Probably to a friend of a friend or a newbie if I was present at the time. Unknown person - depending how charitable I am feeling they may get my worst bass at best. take his passport as insurance!

do it!

Probably price not for me, charge what you want - I like but wont buy - I rarely touch a tone knob

I restored an old cracked battered body….. and made up this bad boy a mate of mine has it as his go to bass pretty much almost wish I didn’t let it go, but it’s in a good home
